Basketball drill: 2 vs 0 full court side lane

• Centers + Guards + Forwards - starting from U12
• 2 or more players
• 1 ball per pair
• two baskets

Requirements: 

• Performing a layup while running and receiving a pass

Aim:

• Speed dribble along the sideline because it is the shortest route to the other side
• pass and catch at speed 

Organization:

• player shoots a free throw and takes the rebound
• catch the ball as high as possible
• 3 sprints to the outlet position and calls
• passes with an overhead pass to the outlet
• the man with the ball dribbles along the sideline as fast as possible 
• the man with the ball passes to the one who shot
• gets the pass at full speed
• and makes the layup without a dribble

Teaching Points:

• Sprinting
• communication
• correct dribble start
• pushing the ball at speed dribble
• dribbler should see where the flyer is
• pass timing
• shooter catches his own ball
• Player that passes the ball sprints under the circle to the outlet on the other side
• calls
• gets the ball at the outlet position with an overhead pass
• Both players walk the same 2 to 0 break as on the way there
• but now on the other half of the field 

Variation:

• Put 1 defender at each basket
• Defender catches the ball and gives outlet pass
• and becomes a flyer
• shooter becomes defender
